    Kit for playing with Superior Drummer2.0

    Hi all, I am after some advice. I currently have a Roland TD4KP and I am looking to purchase something bigger and better. I was looking at the DM10 X Mesh Kit, as it has plenty of inputs and a lot of pads as standard. I'm not sure if it is still available, but it's cheaper than the DM10 MKII...

    my e-drum plan - recommendations please

    Hello, I decided that I am going to build an hybrid drum. I have a 5 piece Mapex Tornado drum kit. I will switch the heads with Roland Powerply mesh heads. Then, I will insert Roland rt-30 triggers. I have a Yamaha dtxplorer IV e-drum kit and I plan to use the 2 cymbals and the module from that...

    Triggers or e-kit for college dorm?

    Instead of going out and buying an electronic kit (I already have a Pearl acoustic), would it be possible to mute the crap out of all the drums and cymbals (maybe use mesh heads if necessary) and use drum triggers? It'd be a lot cheaper than an e-kit and I like the idea of having "hybrid" drums...

    Hey there, Who's tried any of Carlsbro's kits? The prices I've been quoted seem really good compared to almost everyone else's stuff. The sounds don't sound, like, next level compared to some of those swanky mesh kits, etc. But for the price and functionality (I'm learning to play, not...

    What drum module for alesis dm6 replacement?

    So, I've had my Alesis dm6 electronic set for about 2-3 years, and the other day, the module/brain of it just died for no apparent reason. For a replacement, should I get the same brand and model, or does anyone have any other recommendations? I don't have too large of a budget(about $300 max).
